Where imaging and radiation meet – Radiotherapy with the MR-Linac
Where imaging and radiation meet – Radiotherapy with the MR-Linac
In conventional radiotherapy, the tumor is first localized using CT and MRT images in order to calculate the irradiated areas. The major drawback in this case: the subsequent radiation only shows bone structures in the body but not the tumor itself. As a result, the radiated area is often larger than necessary. In our video you will learn how the MR-Linac can be used for more precise radiotherapy.
